Review of items from last call

1. Test illustrations/descriptions [Felton]
http://www.t10.org/ftp/t10/document.07/07-377r0.pdf
RTTL figure shows that there is trace between the connector and the measurement point.
The Molex fixture has 2” of micro strip traces on each side.
Annex B may mention the trace existence with regards to measurement. Since the traces are included in the S-parameter file, Galen and Mickey will work on including the information in the explanation file associated with the s-parameter postings and determine if a general figure can be included in Annex B (or elsewhere) in the standard as informative.

• Use a consistent format for graphs and provide equations. Jenkins and Witt have supplied the figures. The table entries may be sufficient to provide the “equations” for the editor (Elliott) to draw in his preferred format.
• Alvin to look at “repeating pattern” usage.
• Mickey and Alvin to review references to figures.
• Alvin to talk to STA about adding a strong statement regarding compatibility with SATA at 6Gbps. Fitzpatrick will support as needed.

3. Cable specification update [Olawsky, Fromm, Wingard]
